Good morning Owls,
We have been working hard in Owl class.  Last week we played in the snakes and water.  We painted our feet for our scrapbook cover.  We had stickers on the easel.  This activity is great for small motor.  We played outside.  The weather is so nice we have been spending a lot of time outdoors.  Ms. Pat always has great things for us to do.  Water, Paint, and sand always makes for a wonderful exploration and expansion of the brain.

I look forward to this week we will be playing with balloons.

With Love,
Ms. Tracee

Hello sweet Owls,

Happy Easter!! We we will be celebrating the Grace of God this week. We had so much fun last week in the Owl room. We played in the plastic eggs with the bunnies. We matched the colors talked about the colors. My Owls are so good at this. We played with the ducks in the water. Always a favorite. We also experimented with water colors. We talked about the pattern of water, paint, paper. My owls also got to experiment with the paints. We made resurrection eggs in Chapel. On Ms. Pat's playground we painted, bubbles, and scooped the poured the grass seed with carrot scoops. We had a great time.

Happy Spring Break!! Yeah!! I can't believe how fast the year is moving. We had so much fun with our bikes in the owl room this week. We really had some movers. In our classroom we filled in a square and triangle with shaped blocks again this activity works on spacial awareness, shapes, colors and fine motor. So simple. We also scooped in the corn meal, worked with stickers while talking about different ways of transportation. We read books about planes, trains and automobiles. And oh course we rode our bikes. So much fun!!

Have a great week and I look forward to another week of transportation after spring break. They love it so.

With love,

Howdy and YEE HAW,

We had a great GO Texan week. We enjoyed different size balls with toilet paper and paper towel tubes. They had so much fun exploring which ball fits, talking about the colors, sizes, textures. We loved looking through the tubes and talking through the tubes. So much fun. We scooped and played in the corn meal with the cowboys. We stamped with cowboy stamps and read and sang songs. In chapel we played with the parachute. We also enjoyed Ms. Pat's playground.

Next week is Road Rally. Bring a trike, bike, push toy, scooter whatever your little owl will like. Bring it to the school in the morning there will be an Owl parking place near the door. We will be riding during motor movement. So much fun. We will be talking about things to go.

Check out the new pictures!!

Good Afternoon My sweet Owls,

We had an awesome week in the owl class again. We had so much fun playing with the cowboys and scooping the corn meal. We also played with the pom pom balls on the transparent paper. We sorted them, talked about colors even light and dark. We also picked them up with tongs. We counted and threw the pom pom salso. This simple activity has so many skills we can touch on. We also made pictures with markers and stickers and painted with a potato masher. We are experimenting and discovering new things. We enjoyed our special snack. We practiced scooping, taking turns and sharing with others. We had fun in Chapel we talked about Moses and we pushed him in a basket. Outside we explored the play ground and got really messy.

Looking forward to next week we again will talk about horses and Ms. Pat will have some fun things on the playground.

I did post new pictures. Enjoy!!

We Love,

Ms. Tracee

Hello Sweet Owls,

We had a fantastical Valentines in the Owl room. We decorated our valentine bags with stickers, scooped and poured in the sugar. We made our valentine cards with toilet paper rolls shaped into hearts and oh course ate out Valentine cookies. Thank you Georgia.

We had so much fun outside with Ms. Pat. We scooped in the pink sand with hearts and watched for the big trucks.

Next week is Go Texan week. We will be making friendship trail mix. Please send in a bag of any type of treat to add to our trail mix. They enjoy scooping the treats into the bowls for snack.

I did not take any new pictures last week. I will post new ones next week.

With Love,

Hello Owls,

What a great week we had in the Owl room. My sweet owls are growing and learning so much. I was really listening and watching my Owls this week and thinking back to August. We have come a long way. I am so proud of them. In the owl room we painted with snowmen and snowflake stamps. We played with the ducks in the ice. We also colored with markers and scooped the snow. In chapel we helped to take some sick people to see Jesus. We had to climb over a bridge, crawl under a wall, go through a door and ride a horse through wild animal pit. Yeah!!

Remember next week we will not have school. Our conferences will be on Wednesday. I look forward to talking with you all. Have a great weekend.

With love,

Ms. Tracee
